changed starter solenoid, still nothing
Okay. So my car just doesnt turn over when i try to start it. I thought dead battery maybe. Nope im at 12-13 volts when car is off. I hve brand new altrenator, battery and starter solenoid. If I jumpstart the car with either a manual jumper, jumper cables, or recharge the battery really high, it will kick up and go. I will turn the ccar off, attempt to start it, and when i turn it over. There is nothing. Just the bzzz sounds of the key thing. Someone plese HELP ME!!!!!

When you turn the key to start and it won't crank, do lights dim or anything? That would be a sign of a battery terminal problem.

Bad ground,...... ?? Either at the battery to body wire or the starter to the engine block itself.
Possibly bad / broken positive wires running to the starter & or soleniod ???

I found out it was a bad battery. It could only hold 10-11 volts and that wasnt enough to crank. What is bad is that battery is 1 month old
